dreamcatchingsWoot!
I got Vincent and Gir to talk through Dexter. The thing that started it all off was WMP, but I'm not complaining because now I can stream my entire music library on Gir wirelessly to Vincent without filling up Vincent's mediocre HDD. (Yes, I consider 200 GB to be small. What is the world coming to?) It wasn't even that hard, but it is something I'd have to see to do, especially because a goodly portion of it was solved for me by the WMP program itself. Gir and Vincent have apparently been talking to each other via Dexter without me. Just like good brothers should.
...I just realized that almost all of my technical equipment at the moment is sporting male designations. Hmmmm. Actually just about everything with a name, other than my car, has a male designation. If I get an iPhone or a Mac, I'll have to work on rectifying that.

Date: 2007-07-09 03:41 pm (UTC)I have one. Can I say that it has made my day better? Can I say that it has amazed me with its wonders? Can I honestly say that it has improved the quality of my life? Yes. Whilst others click, poke and plod along with their "smart" phones, I rub, slide, flick, and pinch like I'm on a third date at a county fair. What's great is that I don't even have to bring it up that I have one. If it doesn't come up in conversation, which it often does, it will pleasantly chirp like a cricket when a call comes in, or chime when I have to give Dirty Cat her pill- (Location: Her mouth). Or someone will mention something on Youtube I should see. Or talk about where they watched the 4th of July fireworks up in the Hollywood Hills, "Gosh, I need a map to show you." Or ordering someone's Directv HD package from a parking lot. I use it so much. Thanks, iPhone. It makes me wish I bought Apple stock. Oh, wait. I did.
